I have always been a hand quilter but not anymore. My husband gave me a Tin Lizzie 18 for Christmas. Boy was I surprised. We are both hoping I can get good at it and take in other people's quilts. We put it together and it is a beast. Can't wait to play with it today.
|
Have Fun. I;m green with envy.
|

Have fun and remember practice, practice, practice.

I practiced some this afternoon. I am making some small quilts for charity.
|
Awesome but remember there is a learning period. Don't get discouraged. For awhile you may wonder "WHY did I get the beast??" Keep Practicing. Then one day it all comes together for you. Enjoy!
|
Yeah....good for you....have fun. I love my HQ16.....but get ready for a real learning curve!!!! Have lots of patience!! :)

That's great and exciting. I would be so intimidated with it. Good luck and have fun. - Cynthia

I have the Tin Lizzie LS18 with Shirley Sticher II. The first year was H#*L to say the least. Have learn to over come many of my problems. The easiest lesson was to use King Tut Thread. There are a few videos on youtube.
|
Wow...That was quite a Christmas present. What made you choose that one?
|
That is great validation! It shows he appreciates your love of quilting (and maybe the quilts too!) :-)

Congratulations, doing happy dance. You will be so thrilled with it! Have fun playing!
|
Wow what a keeper you have. I am green. Have fun with it.
|
Happy feet dance for you both!
|
Have fun! I got one last spring and she and I are just beginning to be friends. I thought she was a little nasty at first with breaking threads and her Lizzie stitch didn't want to work. But I got new thread, got the Lizzie stitch working, and now we're getting along better. I've just done meandering, circles, and stippling so far but I'm not afraid of her any longer.

Quiltinggranny,
The Tin Lizzie is a long arm Quilting machine. Also someone asked me why I chose that one. My husband chose it. He talked to my dad who has one and decided it would be good. I had no idea I was getting it. Total shock. |
